Normal urinary corticosterone level in the SCA1 mice. Urinary corticosterone (per creatinine) before and 1 hour after acute stress. Results of the permutational linear mixed-effect model: stress (within-subject factor): F1,18 = 79, P < 0.001; genotype: F1,18 = 0.78, P = 0.4; stress*genotype interaction: F1,18 = 0.48, P = 0.5. N = 9 animals per group. Box-whisker plots indicating the inter-quartile (IQ) intervals (box), 1.5*IQ range (whiskers) and medians (middle line). The lines connect points representing values from 1 animal.
